Cute, but cheap construction

Cute, but cheap construction
When I got them I was so happy, because they were cute and fit well. I wore them 5 or 6 times over a 2 month period, and the grid construction of the platform sole completely collapsed in the left shoe. I may try to fill in the grid with rubber or something, but am dissatisfied with how quickly the shoe broke down.☆☆Edited to add that J Adams reached out to me and offered a full refund with a sincere apology - I appreciate good customer service, and I'm considering purchasing another pair (mine have a white star by the toes, but the new ones have a gray star - plus they've gone up a few bucks... 😋)

Bought these for a specific outfit and it worked perfect! The soles are thick, but not too thick. Size 6.5 fit perfect, but only with thin socks. The shoes are comfortable, but not for long or arduous walking.

I had been looking for cute, “lifestyle” sneakers- not for athletics, just running around. I love the wedge (I’m short so I need it) and they are super cute. I get tons of compliments on them. They are pretty comfortable, I would not wear them on a hike but can run errands all day in them.

Size: 7.5Color: White Vegan LeatherVerified Purchase
I wanted a pair of Air Force 1's but they were all sold out in my area and online, so I decided to give these a try. I will NOT be buying any white platforms other than these in the future!

They are great quality for the price, but won't last forever. I like them because they're affordable so I won't feel bad buying a new pair when they look gross in 6 months. They do run slightly small, so if you're in between sizes (like I am) I would size up. I got a 7 and would size up next time to an 8. They still fit great, I just keep the laces looser than I normally would on a sneaker. I got mine for "fashion", not for actual practicality and they serve their purpose. I wouldn't buy then for walking shoes or athletic purposes, but they look great and are great quality for the price.

These were very cute and I liked them a lot. Sadly, my odd foot size did not work for their sizing. I am a 9 1/2; the 9 was a smidge too short and the 10 would be way too big. Drat it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tight toe, snaggy sparkles
Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2023
Size: 9Color: Glittery RainbowVerified Purchase
My daughter bought a pair of $95 Betsy Johnson platform sneakers and I saw these and bought them as a cheaper alternative. These arrived and they had a taller soul that her other shoes so that was good. I could tell immediately that these wouldn’t fit her as the toe box seems very tight in width and height. She tried them and her toes were jammed together uncomfortably. However farther back the shoe was wide. In fact the shoe seems larger at the heel than across the ball of the foot. Really odd fit. My daughter had a formal and wanted fun sparkly sneakers with her formal dress. She couldn’t have used these shoes even if they fit because the sparkles are very rough and would snag her dress. If you had a long crinoline under skirt these shoes would shred it. All in all I would say these shoes should probably never not be worn with a short dress or shorts and only if you can make do with a super small toe box and put something behind your heel to keep it from sliding out. I would recommend spending an extra $50 and getting shoes with sequins sewed on if you want to have a good night and wear them more than once.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good value poor design on tongue of shoe
Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2024
Size: 7.5Color: Fine Gold GlitterVerified Purchase
These shoes are fairly comfortable. I sized up on recommendation from another review and am glad I did. The toe box is fairly narrow but the back of the shoe is pretty roomy in comparison. The biggest drawback is the glitter sequins on the tongue of the shoe. Every time I took a step, the tongue of the shoe rubbed into the front of my leg. After four hours of walking, I had painful, deep red marks. I think you could tie these so the tongue doesn’t lay flat. In that case, buy them because they are cute and fairly comfortable for the price you pay.

Size: 6.5Color: White Multi StarVerified Purchase
Read a lot of review and yes the shoes are really stylish. The platform that I've been looking for. As for size I'm usually a 6 to 6.5 depending on style so I got the 6 and its got room but I won't say it's too big, but I'm keeping it and after I just re eived my 6.5, I re order a 6 to see the difference in size which I think would be minimal, and as soon as I decided on which size I would much prefer to wear, I will be ordering the plain white one. I think it's still true to size
